- Activate your card and create a web account at farepay.rideuta.com and add your card to the account for loss and theft protection as well as for convenient account management. You can add funds to your account here.
- Tap card on card reader when boarding, exiting or transferring between UTA bus, TRAX, FrontRunner, Ski Service and PC-SLC Connect and street car services. When transferring between TRAX lines (i.e. Blue Line to Red Line), only tap card at first and last stations. Card readers are located inside buses near doors and at UTA rail stations.
- Remember to tap off your card so that you get charged the correct amount. If you forget to tap off you will be charged for the maximum FrontRunner trip (50% of max fare).
- Use card for fare payment only after activation and when card reader has given green light. If card reader gives red light, card is not valid for fare payment and another form of payment is required.
- Present card to UTA police when asked to present proof of fare.
